Study summary

This is a Phase 1, randomized, placebo controlled, double-blind, dose escalation trial of 48 males and non-pregnant females, 18-49 years old, inclusive, who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria. This trial is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of an Andes Virus (ANDV) DNA vaccine for the prevention of Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS). ANDV DNA vaccine or placebo will be administered using the PharmaJet Stratis(R) Needle-Free Injection System. The study duration is 23 months while the subject participation duration is 12 months. Subjects assigned to the 3 dose regimen will receive ANDV DNA vaccine on Days 1, 29 and 169, and placebo on Day 57. Subjects assigned to the 4 dose regimen will receive ANDV DNA on Days 1, 29, 57 and 169. Two doses (2 or 4 mg) of ANDV DNA vaccine will be evaluated. The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and reactogenicity of the ANDV DNA vaccine by dosage cohort and treatment arm when administered using the PharmaJet Stratis(R) Needle-Free Injection system in normal, healthy adults.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Provide written informed consent before initiation of any study procedures.
  2. Are able to understand and comply with planned study procedures and be available for all study visits/phone calls.
  3. Males or non-pregnant females ages 18-49, inclusive.
  4. Are in good health*. *As determined by medical history and physical examination to evaluate acute or currently ongoing chronic medical diagnoses or conditions, defined as those that have been present for at least 90 days which would affect the assessment of the safety of subjects or the immunogenicity of study vaccinations. Chronic medical diagnoses or conditions should be stable for the last 60 days (no hospitalizations, ER or urgent care for condition and no adverse symptoms that need medical intervention such as medication change/supplemental oxygen). This includes no change in chronic prescription medication, dose, or frequency as a result of deterioration of the chronic medical diagnosis or condition in the 60 days prior to enrollment. Any prescription change that is due to change of health care provider, insurance company, etc., or that is done for financial reasons, as long as in the same class of medication, will not be considered a deviation of this inclusion criterion. Any change in prescription medication due to improvement of a disease outcome, as determined by the site principal investigator or appropriate sub-investigator, will not be considered a deviation of this inclusion criterion. Subjects may be on chronic or as needed (prn) medications if, in the opinion of the site principal investigator or appropriate sub-investigator, they pose no additional risk to subject safety or assessment of reactogenicity and immunogenicity and do not indicate a worsening of medical diagnosis or condition. Similarly, medication changes subsequent to enrollment and study vaccination are acceptable provided there was no deterioration in the subject's chronic medical condition that necessitated a medication change, and there is no additional risk to the subject or interference with the evaluation of responses to study vaccination. Note: Topical, nasal, and inhaled medications (apart from steroids as outlined in the Subject Exclusion Criteria), herbals, vitamins, and supplements are permitted.
  5. Oral temperature is less than 100.0 degrees Fahrenheit (37.8 degrees Celsius).

  8. Diastolic blood pressure (BP) is 55 to 95 mm Hg, inclusive.
  9. Have acceptable screening laboratories* within 28 days prior to enrollment. *Screening laboratory values that are outside acceptable range but are thought to be due to an acute condition or due to laboratory error may be repeated once.
  10. Urine protein screen is negative or trace.
  11. Drug screen for opiates is negative.
  12. HgbA1C \< 6.3% at screening.

    *Women of childbearing potential are defined as those who have not been sterilized via tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy, or successful Essure(R) placement (permanent, non-surgical, non-hormonal sterilization) with history of documented radiological confirmation test at least 90 days after the procedure (or with use of another birth control method if history of confirmation test not confirmed), AND are still menstruating or \< 1 year since the last menses if perimenoapausal.

    **For this study, we define an effective contraceptive method as one that results in a failure rate of less than 1% per year when it is used consistently and correctly. This includes, but is not limited to, non-male sexual relationships, abstinence from sexual intercourse with a male partner, monogamous relationship with a vasectomized partner, male condoms with the use of applied spermicide, intrauterine devices, NuvaRing(R), and licensed hormonal methods such as implants, injectables or oral contraceptives ("the pill").

    • See definition of women of childbearing potential above. **Performed > 1 year prior to screening

      • Must agree to use a barrier method of birth control e.g., either condom with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream or partner reports usage of occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps) with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository.

Laboratory results were considered adverse events using the following thresholds: ALT 50 IU/L or greater; total bilirubin 1.30 mg/dL or greater; creatinine 0.81 mg/dL or greater (female) or 1.11 mg/dL or greater (male); BUN 24 mg/dL or greater; hemoglobin 11.6 g/dL or lower (female) or 13.2 g/dL or lower (male); ANC \<1.8 K/mcL; sodium 135 mmol/L or lower (decrease) or 146 mmol/L or greater (increase); potassium 3.0 mmol/L or lower (decrease) or 5.2 mmol/L or greater (increase); WBC 4.4 K/mcL or lower (decrease) or 13.1 K/mcL or greater (increase 18 to \<21 years) and 11.1 K/mcL or greater (increase 21 years or older); or platelets 134 K/mcL or below (decrease) or 467 K/mcL or greater (increase).

PrimaryNumber of Participants Reporting Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) From Day 1 Through Day 337

An adverse event was considered serious if it resulted in any of the following outcomes: death, a life-threatening adverse event (its occurrence places the participant at immediate risk of death), inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect. Adverse events can be considered serious when they may jeopardize the patient or participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition.

An adverse event is considered serious if it results in any of the following outcomes: death, a life-threatening adverse event (its occurrence places the participant at immediate risk of death), inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect. Adverse events can be considered serious when they may jeopardize the patient or participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition. An adverse event was considered related to the study product if there was a reasonable possibility that the study product caused the adverse event. Reasonable possibility means that there is evidence to suggest a causal relationship between the study product and the adverse event.

SecondaryGeometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Neutralizing Antibodies to ANDV Measured by Plaque Reduction Neutralization Titers

Venous blood was collected to perform a 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT) which was conducted with Andes Virus as the antigen. The geometric mean titer was calculated for each study arm from the results available at Day 1 prior to the first study vaccination, 28 days following the second study vaccination (and immediately prior to the third study vaccination; Day 57), 28 days following the third study vaccination (Day 85), and 28 days following the fourth study vaccination (Day 197). Results lower than the limit of detection (\<20) were reported and analyzed as 14.1 (which is 20/ sqrt(2)).
